    Oliva Event

    I was at my frequented local shop
    recently as they were getting ready for an Oliva event. The event hadn't started, but the specials were already available.

    Qualifying purchases at 15% off


    Bonus ‘free’ cigars


    PLUS bonus Large Swag with the qualified purchase. Tabletop lighter. This is hefty!


    Each bonus cigar came with a raffle ticket for additional prizes.

    Two tickets won!

    This USB rechargeable lighter.
    The piezo is electric with the push of a button. No clicky action. And there are lights. Why? IDK. To look cool?
    I thought they might be fuel level indicator lights, but they glowed when the lighter was empty and there is a separate window for that on the backside.


    AND
    This Stinky stand-up ashtray


    I would have stayed a few more hours for the event to start, but the place was already SRO, getting a little thick with smoke in the air, and I still had some work to do.

    That Nub lighter reminds me of R2D2. Maybe the lights indicate the charge?

    Nice haul - you should have ran out and bought a loto ticket!

    Yes, you are correct. The lights indicate the charge. This thing is dangerous!
    The fuel begins to flow as soon as the cover is lifted and continues to do so.
    Light it, and accidentally drop it? The flame continues without holding anything down. Oliva Event Oliva Event
    It does have a handy punch built in the cap.

    Wow, that sounds crazy! So the piezo is on/off toggle, not push to operate?

    Yes. Electronic. Touch the button to ignite. Don't have to hold it down.
    Tap it, it clicks/sparks rapidly about 5 times and the flame is lit.

    Nice grab Mark - Oliva is a great budget smoke
    No cigar until you get a par - birdie if it's a scramble !
